SHORT HISTORY OF THE PARISH Wilston parish began with the dedication of the first St Alban s church on 12th September This church was a simple wooden structure with verandahs on its northern and southern sides. Initially Wilston Church was part of Windsor parish but became a separate parish on 22nd March In 1929, the present brick church was built, as a war memorial to those who served in the First World War. In1958, the present Parish Centre was built. This centre is named the Halford Centre in honour of the ministry of Bishop Halford. The centre included a parish hall and kitchen as well as a parish operated kindergarten/childcare centre. In 1970, the church was extended to incorporate a new baptistery and church porch. In 2008, the old parish kindergarten, which had been rented out to a private company, was significantly renovated and became a ministry of the parish with the St Alban s Wilston Early Childhood Centre coming into being. In 2014, a major renovation of the Parish Centre is being undertaken. 6
7 St Albans Church Building. St Alban's Church is a brick, French Gothic style church with a fine timber arched buttress ceiling and an uncommon sloping floor. Over time successive generations have added to the beauty of the church. The two small stained glass windows of St George and St Alban in the sanctuary are the work of William Bustard, a noted Australian artist and stained glassmaker of the first part of the twentieth century. The simple altar of silky oak comes from the original St Alban s church, which was a wooden church built in That church also doubled as the local schoolroom before the building of the present Wilston State School. The delicate woodwork in the sanctuary is the work of a former rector of the parish; The Reverend Theo Kernke. The various stained glass windows, mostly made by Oliver Cowley, have been added over time. St Alban s church is a Brisbane City heritage listed building. 7
